An Intimate Night of Stories and Songs Bobby Rush RawAn Intimate Night of Stories and Songs (Solo)Rushborn Emmett Ellis, Jr. grew up on his familys farm picking cotton, tending to mules and chickens, and living in a home without electricity nor indoor plumbing. He built his first guitar on the side of the familys house out of broom wire, nails, bottles and bricks.The blues, Rush recalls, provided an escape from the cotton fields. Youd go out on Saturday night to the juke joints, but then on Monday morning youd go back into the cotton fields to work for your bossman.He left behind farm work to perform on the road with the Rabbit Foot Minstrels, and as Bobby Rusha name he took on out of respect to his father, a ministerhe toured the jukes and clubs of Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi before settling in Chicago in the 1950s. Through singles on labels including Chess, ABC and Philadelphia International and relentless touring Rush established an unparalleled reputation as an entertainer.Rush has become one of the most prominent advocates for the blues tradition, and says its the root of all music, its the mother of all music. If you dont like the blues, you probably dont like your mama. And he has no plans to slow down.

Biographie de Bobby Rush
To Bobby Rush s innumerable fans, he is an American music icon, a legendary showman, a King of the Chitlin Circuit, and perhaps the most vital living Southern musician to have started his career on the Chicago blues scene in the 1950s. Not only has he made unforgettable contributions to the blues world but also to funk, soul, and a genre he's credited as creating: folk-funk. His new Rounder Records release, Porcupine Meat, will further enhance the legend of this Blues Hall of Fame inductee, three-time Grammy® nominee, and 10-time Blues Music Award winner. It will also be an overdue revelation for the uninitiated, for it shows Rush, at age 82, at the peak of his powers as a singer, songwriter, harmonica player, and, above all, an entertainer. Produced by Grammy® winner Scott Billington, Porcupine Meat features all-new compositions that range from the down-and-dirty funk of I Don t Want Nobody Hanging Around and the playful double entendre of Catfish Stew, to the deep blues of Got Me Accused and the slippery R&B of the title track (about the charms of an otherwise malicious lover). Guest guitar soloists include Dave Alvin, Joe Bonamassa, Keb' Mo', and Vasti Jackson.. At a time when Southern soul music is having a comeback, Bobby Rush has never gone away, nor has he ever lost his relevance. This is how it s done.
